West of the Mississippi

The little girls carried signs and clutched pink balloons. They perched atop their fathers’ shoulders and walked alongside their mothers. They joined in chants of “This is what democracy looks like!” and “Strong women, strong world!”

They were among the youngest of the more than 8,000 people of all ages who marched through downtown Omaha on Saturday for the 2018 Omaha Women’s March. Last year’s local march, held the day after President Donald Trump’s inauguration, drew 12,000.

Sweat, Donnie.

I was in Lincoln yesterday, and there were large numbers of women…signs…children with signs…I love Lincoln, and that makes me love it more (my own town? No, they had a March for Science and a March to support immigrants, but no Women’s March, last year or this. The liberals here love everyone but women, apparently).
